The ambitious company has released a new iteration of its flagship Hero camera every year since 2010, upping their game each time, to the dismay of our bank accounts. Their latest, the HERO 4 Black, finally pulls the trigger on several long-standing desires, most notably 4k video at 30fps.</p><p dir="ltr"><span>Additionally, the HERO 4 Black will offer...</span></p>Tue, 10 Mar 2015 00:00:00 -0400Toughest Races in the Worldhttp://www.askmen.com/top_10/sports/toughest-races-in-the-world.htmlhttp://www.askmen.com/top_10/sports/toughest-races-in-the-world.html<p class="p1">For most guys, running a marathon is enough to reaffirm their masculinity and leave them with a huge sense of accomplishment.

By the time Davis graduated from high school, the L.A. Lakers star had already amassed nearly 20,000 career points. But as far as the two guys would appear in experiences, they find themselves just that close on the NBA scoring list this season. <br /><br />Most expected Davis, a freakishly talented 21-year-old center for the Ne...Mon, 05 Jan 2015 00:00:00 -0500Best NFL Playshttp://www.askmen.com/top_10/sports/best-nfl-plays.htmlhttp://www.askmen.com/top_10/sports/best-nfl-plays.html<p>Last night Odell Beckham Jr. busted out one of the most incredible catches in NFL history. Never mind that it was ultimately futile -- his New York Giants lost 31-28, thanks to a late touchdown pass from Dallas Cowboys quarterback Tony Romo -- it was one of the most insane displays of coordination and athleticism on the gridiron. After getting fouled, no less, Beckham somehow managed to stretch...</p>Mon, 24 Nov 2014 00:00:00 -050010 Athletes Who Committed Unspeakable Crimeshttp://www.askmen.com/top_10/sports/10-athletes-who-committed-unspeakable-crimes.htmlhttp://www.askmen.com/top_10/sports/10-athletes-who-committed-unspeakable-crimes.html<p>It seems that pro athletes have a great knack for falling from grace... and landing with a loud splat. In the past little while, Ray Rice&nbsp;and Adrian Peterson have experienced quite the fall.

Maidana came up short in the first episode but pushed the pound-for-pound king more than anyone else has in the last 12 years.

But as we grow older, that noble maxim mutates to: "If you don't have anything nice to say, meet me at the water cooler."<br /><br /> It's true: Our society loves to gossip.

The field is as open as its been in a decade, with 2013 winner Chris Froome showing he is, after all, infallible, and Alberto Contador seeming to have regained the form that made him champion in 2009. <br /><br />Aside from the yellow jersey -- given to the rider who completes all 21 stages in the shortest cumulative time -- sprinters Peter Sagan, Mar...Sat, 05 Jul 2014 00:00:00 -0400Top 10: World Cup Goalshttp://www.askmen.com/top_10/sports/top-10-world-cup-goals.htmlhttp://www.askmen.com/top_10/sports/top-10-world-cup-goals.htmlThey don&#39;t call The World Cup the &quot;biggest sporting event in the world&quot; because of the size of the stadiums.

Just how nasty has this year&rsquo;s World Cup been compared to past years? <br /><br />First, the good news. The 2014 World Cup is, thus far, noticeably cleaner than in 2010, with roughly five fewer fouls per match. The bad news?

We talked to four of the expected top picks this year, including Sammy Watkins, C.J. Mosley, Calvin Pryor and Kony Ealy, to pick their brains on the subject. Are they prepared for the big day?
